I think the tapout guys are the biggest bunch of douchebags I've ever seen. I've only watched a few episodes and the guys remind me of professional wrestling characters. What the hell is with the makeup?

That being said, Tapout is a huge driving force in the spread of MMA in the mainstream world.

Hey Davisty69 do you think we would even be talking about them if they wore business suits?

I DVR the shows and fast forward until I see the fighters they pick up. I think that they are doing a good job of introducing new fighters, even though I haven't seen them showcase more than 1 fight per fighter. The best thing about UFC TUF is that I get exposed to fighters enough to know whether I like them.

TAPOUT guys are WWE style shills but I respect them for making MMA a market.

I barely got through my first show the day before yesterday. Since then I'm addicted, ignore their marketing gimmicks and be thankful we get to catch guys like Matt Hughes, Crazy Bob Cook, BJ Penn, and Chuck Liddel while they promote seriously lucky up and comers who not only get a chance to promote for a major company in mma, but their self.

They run a solid business, and have a fun time doing it (as corny and pointless it can be sometimes).

When people start complaining about a little extra MMA in their life....

I like the bits with the fighting and some of the behind the scenes stuff is interesting but the Tapout crew are annoying as hell.
Grown men should not dress like they are off to a fancy dress party and shout peoples names over and over like drunken frat boys.

Also, that Mask guy has said a few things that give the impression that he thinks he's not white. Whats that all about?

Oh, and that Matt Major guy seemed like a total prick too.

Shit is Tapout came to my gym and offerend to sponsor me in a fight, Damn I would be in shock.

Those guys are cool and funny. I admit when I first saw the preview for the show I was thinking, Wtf are these guys thinking, But I honestly think it's cool that the biggest MMA clothing company is run by some cool laid back guys who get to know you and like to have a fun time, but also have a Business aspect.
